Success criteria:
Name the raw materials required
Name the products
State where respiration occurs in cells

3. What is aerobic respiration?
Respiration is the process which releases the chemical energy in food
Glucose is the main energy source used by cells
Other foods (e.g. fat or protein) can also be broken down and used by cells

5. What is required for respiration?
Food is required as an energy source
Oxygen is needed for aerobic respiration.
- food releases much more energy if oxygen is also available

7. What are the products of aerobic respiration?
Carbon dioxide and water are produced
The carbon dioxide is transported to the lungs
- to be breathed out
The water is either kept inside, or released by the cell

8. Where does aerobic respiration occur?
Aerobic respiration occurs in structures called mitochondria
